30 Best Seafood Restaurants near Lake Station

“First time here. Ordered 1/2 lb. perch, clam strips and shrimp. Very fresh and good tasting. Perch breading has a welcome slight 'kick' to it, but does not overwhelm the perch flavor. Probably the best perch around, and at a reasonable price. The shrimp and clam strips were also very good. Will be back. Five Stars.“

“Ok...my Aunt Barb insisted we come here after she'd had been here more than several times. Raving about how good everything was! No disappointments! Oh my! 5 of us, tasting everything...sharing IS caring. Happy tastbuds all around. Service terrific. Just opening the door you are greeted wirh the splendid aroma. We live out of town an hour and a half but...shall be back. Thank you so much!!“

“I love the clam strips and while the sides are basic they are good. My husband loves their hush puppies too“

“Just finished an early dinner as my first experience with Cajun Crab House. It was outstanding! I had 6 raw oysters along with the Deep Fried Catfish and my son had a Crab Cake appetizer and Shrimp linguine. Some of the best seafood I’ve had in a while. Even better than the food was the service. I have problems with spicy food due to chemo and Ciara, our server, went out of her way to check the spice level of the food I had ordered. Several trips to and from the kitchen and I picked the Catfish…..perfect choice. I have no problem with anything. Was one of the better experiences I’ve had“

“We were a group of 9; 6 adults & 3 children looking for a more sit-down place to eat when the owner talked us into staying telling us we would not be disappointed, and we were not. Their menu had a huge variety of food to choose from, and all of us thought the food was great! I had French toast, hash browns & sausage. My husband had an awesome shrimp omlette that had more shrimp on it than anywhere else we have ever eaten that put shrimp in its breakfast. And even thought it was all packagesd as take out, there were three tables available to sit and eat. It worked for us! Great job S&G! It's a well-earned 5 star review!“

“Sharon our hostess was outstanding, meal was great! Holly you owe Sharon a steak! We had a great time!!!!;“

“A friend recommended Las Jacarandas for great Mexican food in the area. We ordered a ton of items to take out. Was not disappointed whatsoever! Tried an assortment of items (chile relleno dinner, variety of tacos such as beef, fish, steak, pork, chorizo, chicken mole) and everything was excellent! The sides (rice, refried beans) and the sauces were all excellent and better than any other Mexican restaurant. Cannot wait to eat in next time!..This place rocks!!“

“We ordered a pound of fried large shrimp, a pound of Lake Perch, fries, mushrooms & coleslaw. The large fried shrimp were big thick pieces battered & fried perfectly crispy & they removed the tails so you have no waste. The fried lake perch was battered & fried crispy big fillets. The business itself is just a small take out shack but thank you to the cooks who are making delicious food inside. We will definitely be back again soon.“

“Had never eaten here before attending a memorial lunch for a family member yesterday.Wonderful buffet,many choices-we had perch,beef and roasted chicken.Fresh veggies,good salad,roasted redskins,excellent rolls and very good ice cream for dessert.Table service was excellent,our waitress was friendly and professional,and we did not feel rushed(you know how people linger to chat at gatherings like this) .I highly recommend this venue and will be trying their restaurant again.Also had very clean bathrooms! Located in the Innsbruck Country club.“

Went back home to Gary to pick up my daughter and had to stop in and get a pound and a half of there shrimp dipped in mild sauce and drove three hours back home very much satisfied.“

“We stopped in for our first time tonight and will definitely be back. They have a full menu or you can visit on Sunday for the buffet. If you're not familiar with Filipino cuisine do go for the buffet, you'll get to try so many delicious dishes!“

They made the food with love. Everything was fresh and they were very respectful and welcoming. I will always come to this sharks.

“I ordered the lobster tail, crab legs and shrimp combo (steamed not fried) and it was fantastic. It came with two corn and one potato. I believe it was seasoned with old bay and the garlic butter was great. The hush puppies are perfect. Crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside.“

“I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant, and a big part of that was due to the manager Nika. They were attentive, professional, and clearly care about both their team and their guests. It’s refreshing to see leadership that sets such a positive tone. Thank you for going above and beyond!“

One of my favorite meals to get is the fish with corn and potatoes, and it’s always on point.The corn is very good and the potatoes are well seasoned and flavorful. The portions are good and the food is consistently delicious. If you’re in Merrillville and craving seafood, Fisherman’s Island is definitely a place I recommend!“

“I'm in town every eight weeks and I make it a point to pick up a three piece combo (catfish fillets, jumbo shrimp, perch) and I've always been highly satisfied. Great hush puppies, very tasty, and bonus - different Crush flavors (grape, peach,pineapple). I highly recommend!“

“Stopped by yesterday and omg was it good. the flavour was right on.“

“There is sooooo much to try at this restaurant. Although its authentic Mexican, there are American-infused Mexican flavored plates of fish, shrimp, and steak. There are a variety of tequila, vodka, rum and whiskey based drinks worth every cent! Enjoy😉“

“I’m not a fan of Sharks, but nothing was open at 10:30pm and we wanted to try the shrimps.
I was positively surprised, the food was amazing good and the service was very nice and accommodating. I really don’t know why this place is so underrated.“

“Great fast food, especially for an area with very few options. They're always fast and usually very fresh. Definitely ask for their lemon pepper, especially on the fries! It's not the regular spice, and it's really delicious on fried stuff.

Parking: Only a few spots directly in front, but they basically share a parking lot with a grocery store, so there's plenty of parking close enough.“
